The other day I was trying to introduce computer programming to my daughter (7 years old). My son (5 years old) jumped in and essentially took over. He actually showed more enthusiasm. So, at age 5, he is already coding.
Granted, not a complicated program. My son is not a "savant" by any stretch. But the important thing is to notice he is having fun and giggling.
